Chapter 392: A Birthday Gift with a Gradient Painting Style
"Huh?" Gwen blinked the big eyes on her mask.
The spider sensed that it was as if it had froze, and there was no movement at all, and she had no idea that the room was "ambushing" herβand rightfully so. Spider Sensing only works on things that threaten you, and this kind of surprise without hostility is impossible to detect.
Happy birthday...... Speaking of which, today is my birthday?
Gwen patted her head. She was completely busy and forgot, because she was always alone, so her birthday every year was actually not a special day. That is, she would pay attention to her first two birthdays, and she didn't pay much attention to it all these years.
But even if she remembered that her birthday was on this day, she would never have imagined that everyone would put on such a grand posture waiting for her, a little flattered...... No, before that, everyone used public time to prepare a birthday surprise for her in the base, wouldn't he be angry when Mr. Paso found out?
Gwen was then greatly surprised to discover that Mr. Partso himself was here. He looked awkwardly standing away from the crowd with his arms crossed, a little out of place compared to the atmosphere around him...... But he also came after all, and it seems that he has no problem with this "surprise".
The rooms are decorated in colorful colors, and the ceiling is hung with glittering menus. The off-ended display screen lit up one after another, revealing a white background, pink lines drawing a Q version of the cobweb head, and a projection device projecting the words "Happy Birthday" in the middle of the room.
Gwen was swept into the room in a daze, mechanically repeating words such as "thanks" and "thank you very much."
Daisy pushed a cart covered by a curtain and unveiled the curtain "dangdang", revealing a large and gorgeous cake with six lit candles on it.
"I made it with Sister Wanda." Daisy chuckled, "I also went to learn a cake making course, and it took me a whole week to complete this masterpiece day and night!" Isn't that impressive? β
Gwen nodded vigorously: "Thank you!" β
"Thank you for your hard work." Michael, who was silently holding his arms, suddenly spoke, "But it's hard for you to spare a whole week to come......"
Daisy's face changed suddenly, and she rubbed her head with a haha: "Aha, don't take it too seriously." It took a lot of work to make the cake, but it didn't take much time to make it in the afternoon..... Ahaha, I can't help it, after all, I still have a lot of work......"
Michael smiled meaninglessly and said no more. But his strange smile made Daisy feel uncomfortable.
Taking advantage of the boss's gaze, she moved to Wanda's side in small steps and tugged at the corner of her clothes.
"Good sister, there is a chance to help me say a few good words to the boss." She covered her mouth and whispered, "Tell him that I usually get up early every day, work hard, never be lazy, and am a model agent of the year or something." β
Wanda sneered, "Don't worry, he's joking." β
Daisy looked at her suspiciously, "Really? Will he still joke? How do I think he looks super serious anytime and anywhere? β
"Really." Wanda tapped her head with her finger, "Don't be nervous, in fact, Michael is not as fierce as he looks." I can tell when he's serious and when he's joking......"
"Oh~" Daisy showed a "I understand" expression again, "It's going well, it's already a little roundworm in his stomach." β
Wanda's face was slightly red: "You started again." She turned her head away, and made up her mind to ignore her whatever Daisy said she would.
......
"It's time to blow out the candles on your wish." Daisy said, "Think a wish in your heart, but don't tell anyone." Then blow out the candle and your wish will come true! β
Gwen tilted her head and thought for a moment.
Aspiration? It doesn't seem like there's anything I want. Be sure to say if you have any wishes......
Gwen peeked at Michael, only to see that the other party wasn't looking at her.
She closed her eyes, made a wish, and blew out the candle.
Everyone began to applaud. Gwen reopened her eyes and looked up to see that Michael's eyes seemed to fall on her, and although she didn't applaud with everyone, she smiled lightly at her.
So Gwen laughed too.
Birthday Wishes...... Seems to be quite effective!
"Congratulations, little Gwen is a year older." Pietro joked, "It's finally not a five-year-old Lori now, we Gwen are six years old now!" β
Gwen fried: "You're Lori!" I'm not ......."
She said half a sentence, subconsciously looked up to see that Pietro was more than half a head taller than herself, and then looked down at the airfield in front of her chest...... It doesn't seem convincing.
"By the way, because I don't know what you're looking for," Wanda said, revealing a fluffy Hello Kitty doll, "I don't know if you're interested in this kind of gift......
Gwen's eyes lit up, and she happily took the doll: "She's so cute~ Thank you, I like it very much." β
"I've been preparing the cake before, so I don't have any special gifts," Daisy was a little embarrassed, "so there was only a greeting card." β
Gwen accepted it with the same joy: "Thank you~"
"Hey, my gift is worth a lot." Pietro confidently unveiled the disc, "The Collector's Edition game disc that was just released last week!" A super limited edition of just 10,000 copies worldwide! This is a priceless treasure, it has been sold out since its release, and it can't be bought with even more money......"
"Uh...... Thank you, I will cherish it. β
Although eighty percent can't play, it's just that. Gwen thought to herself.
Unexpectedly, her former instructor, the 10,000-year-old Winter Soldier, had prepared a gift for her as well...... Sort of. When Gwen opened the thick gift box, she found a sharp saber lying inside, reflecting a chilling light in the light......
"It's the knife I've used for twenty years, and it's the one I've gotten my hands on. It has saved my life more than once. Mr. Instructor's face was full of seriousness, and he didn't seem to think that there was anything wrong with giving a girl's saber as a birthday present.
"Uh...... Thank you, instructor. Gwen said, carefully closing the lid.
Although it feels strange to receive a knife on his birthday, since it is his favorite knife, it means that he still cares about his little apprentice...... In any case, after all, it was the master's intention, and Gwen still carefully put it away.
Wanda grinned and pulled Michael aside.
"There's something heavier, Gwen," she smiled, "and the boss has a gift for you, too." β
